Sudden attack of superfluous furniture.

I... thank you, grandparents? I guess? I... I won't use it. The laptop has no use for a desk and I don't really have enough clothes to do anything with them beyond stack then in a little clean clothes stack in some chair or whatever. And there's not really any space in this house to put it, especially in rooms I actually use. And it's already been miserable getting out of the vehicle ('cause I'm sick, and the outside is currently in "gonna' make you more sick huehuehue" mode), and it's not even done yet because the main body is kinda' flimsy and I can't get it out without breaking it into pieces. But... it's the thought that counts. Right? Right.

I keep telling you I don't need this crap when it comes up in conversation. I'm perfectly fine sans desk and chest of drawers. Or anything more than I already have access to. The house only has so much space >_<

Although I have learned to always lock my car doors, (it has become such a habit that I don't remember doing it and go out and double check) sometimes the door isn't closed all the way and doesn't lock or something else happens and one door ends up unlocked.

Every. Single. Time. That happens I end up losing something out of my car only to find it fine and 100% intact in somebody's bushes or something.  Usually my insurance and registration folder, sometimes my school bag if I was lazy and didn't see the need to bring it in that day.

Nothing is ever taken out of any of this, though there is little of value anyway. Even small amounts of money are left alone. Neighbors have the same problem, and stuff quickly gets returned to their owners when found.  But this has been happening for half a year, pretty regularly.

My WTF is, why the hell does somebody go through all this trouble to loot any unlocked neighborhood cars, and just stash the stuff in bushes at least once a week?  And how has this been going on for so long without them getting caught?  You'd think an actual burglar would know he can sell the books out of my bag for a good chunk of change, but that never happens.

Maybe they're actually trying to do a good thing and teach you to secure your car doors.

Yea I considered that, and it is working, before this started happening nobody locked their doors around here, but now it's to the point where just about everybody locks the doors.  At this point it's just the odd little unusual circumstance like a seatbelt jamming in a door or something that keeps cars from being 100% secure, just small little human lapses everyone is prone to have.  I don't see how continuing will improve it.

That's a bizarre method, and takes a lot of dedication to spend time doing that, let alone risking jail time or getting shot by somebody if they get caught.

@Raccoons
I think my bag alone weighs more than a raccoon.  My money is on raptors.  They are huge enough to carry it, and I hear they can open doors, Jurassic park says so.

There's this guy on my floor who inexplicably freaks me out. I don't know why, but he's just really unnerving. It seems like I run into him a lot, and I swear he's always giving me this odd look when I do. And we've never so much as spoken once.

Clearly, they are following a prophecy that the item they seek will, someday, be in one of those cars. Probably disguised as a seemingly normal object. They throw the items that don't match into the bushes so they know they already scanned that item. By putting the stuff back you're forcing them to rescan everything.

I've never really paid attention to the stuff they put on display in the halls of my college before, but today I looked at a few of the works of the art students in the school.

What. The. Fuck!?

Some of the strangest things I have ever seen were in those display cases.

Near the photography classes there are some great photographs of people, animals and interesting places, and in the engineering wing they put devices made by students on display.

In the art wing though? Complete mind-fuckery.

Stream of centration right after it's released.
AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCE:
10 minutes for pre-startup installs and such.
Launcher won't let you login. (The login button does not work)
Trying to start the launcher again results in the screen rapidly flashing

10/10 goty.

E: One of the inis contains a variable named banana.
Also, a variable called ReleaseVersion set to False. Herp derp.

E2: The login button did work, there was just an immensely tiny input field.

E3: No servers to connect to.

Contemporary art, a flowchart:

1. Do you have any idea what it means? If no, go to 2. If yes, go to 4a.
2. Does the artist have any idea what it means? If no, go to 4b. If yes, go to 3.
3. Are you sure he's not making it up on the spot? If no, go to 4b. If yes, go to 4a.
4a. NOT ART!
4b. ART!
